I apologize for being so broad. Let me be more specific. It might help some.
We are running an intranet application running on apache and tomcat. It's all Java, using JSP and Servlets, and Struts. One function of the application is scanning in faxes. After being scanned, these documents are stored as TIFF files on the server temporarily. Right now, importing these images into the database is a manual process. There is a JSP page that has a Start Import button that invokes a servlet that imports these images into the database. My task is to make this an automated process so that any images that have been scanned in will get scanned in at night, say 3am. In other words, this code that is in this servlet that imports images needs to be called automatically every night at 3am. I hope that helps. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 3:07 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Running a Service Howdy, You mean like a cron job? ;) Or the Windows Scheduler on windows, or a 3rd party tool like 12Ghosts Timer? Or do you mean already have a tomcat running around the clock but you'd like something to happen at 3am? A tool like Quartz (quarts.sf.net) would help...
